A Month's Lessons.
(Friday, June 08, 2007)
This past month has been one of learning for me. I've been out of class, but I have learned more important things:
How to take pleasure out of each moment in itself. Relax, breathe, and don't wish you were in tomorrow, because of this or that... simply enjoy the "now." This has always been a hard lesson for me.
Find a prayer in even the most drab activities. Folding laundry, doing dishes... each can be a little piece of peace.
The value of caring for a man, learning to place the one you love before yourself constantly. This is something that is even more necessary to every day life now, in marriage, than it was before. Doing the little things for someone makes all the difference in a relationship.
The wedding preparations in their last month or two were absolutely exhausting paired with class, finals, last minute things to do. Taking time to breathe and be absolutely on no schedule, with no obligations, has been heavenly! I promise pictures once I get them uploaded and organized. There are sooo many, and it will be a project in itself!
I'm walking each day, taking my days breath by breath, and taking each moment slowly. It takes practice to live this way.

Oh my goodness... You have been sooo busy.....You were sooo missed! xxo
It only gets better, Meg... I swear. After almost 21 years, I can say I wouldn't change a thing. When I see hubby's face light up from a chocolate chip cookie I made- well, it still makes me weak...
Congratulations, honey, and savor each moment you have...
